Perfectly Imperfect

All that is beautiful belongs to her soul 
A natural vivid sense of energy blessed kind 
An imperfect perfection absolute not a role 
A brilliance so bright that in fact it blinds 

Expressed strongly in her belief with harmony 
Needless conceit for it was not in her nature
All craved for the beauty she held ardently 
Pointless like makeup to her was not major 

Beautiful vibes blossomed from inside 
Richest of spirits and a heart so very tender
Not good nor bad she had nothing to hide 
Lived life to its fullest with all of its splendor 

She was kind Poetry flowing with such grace 
When she spoke her voice sounded like angels 
Her essence was as pure as was her face 
Felt only love for all and for hate contained null

Hatred was not within her being 
For she saw only what was beauty 
Evil in the world she wasn’t seeing 
To bring joy to life she felt was her duty 


Inspired by my youngest Aaliya Marie ….

I love both the title and the content, Brenda. Perfectly imperfect is usually applied to those persons who have a lovely character, and it certainly applies to the one who inspired this write. In fact, before I read the footnote, I had a feeling the writer was referring to herself :) ~ Hope you are keeping well, my friend. ~ Warm regards // paul
